# Appwrite MCP server

mcp-name: io.github.appwrite/mcp

A [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server for Appwrite.
It exposes Appwrite's API — databases, users, functions, teams, storage, and more
— as tools your MCP client can call.

Connect to the hosted server at **`https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp`** and authenticate
through your browser. The first time you connect, your client opens an Appwrite
consent screen; approve the scopes and you're connected. There are no keys to
copy.

## Connect your client

Pick your client below. Each adds the hosted Appwrite Cloud server.

Claude Code

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http appwrite https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp
```

Claude Desktop

Go to **Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector** and paste
`https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp`.

On the free plan, bridge the remote server through stdio instead (requires
Node.js) by editing your config via **Settings → Developer → Edit Config**:

```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"appwrite": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp"]
}
}
}
```

Cursor

Edit `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (global) or `.cursor/mcp.json` (project).

```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"appwrite": {
"url": "https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp"
}
}
}
```

VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

Edit `.vscode/mcp.json` (workspace) or your user configuration via the Command
Palette → **MCP: Open User Configuration**.

```json
{
"servers": {
"appwrite": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp"
}
}
}
```

Codex

Edit `~/.codex/config.toml`.

```toml
[mcp_servers.appwrite]
url = "https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp"
```

OpenCode

Edit `opencode.json` (project) or `~/.config/opencode/opencode.json` (global).

```json
{
"$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
"mcp": {
"appwrite": {
"type": "remote",
"url": "https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp",
"enabled": true
}
}
}
```

Windsurf

Edit `~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json`.

```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"appwrite": {
"serverUrl": "https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp"
}
}
}
```
